Ideally situated on the edge of the Sierra Espuna Regional Park, this small intimate hotel offers you the opportunity to stay in a tranquil and stunning area.
YAt the foot of the hills of the nature reserve -one of the Spanish Regional nature reserve Parks-, in the village of Gebas, we found the remains of an old farmstead. La Casa del Estanco was originally also a sales outlet for tobacco and groceries; now the farm has been converted into a small country hotel. Hospederia La Mariposa is an ideal base for short or long holidays, especially for those people who love unspoilt nature, hiking and other sport activities. In an authentic Spanish atmosphere you may enjoy all modern facilities that will ensure your comfort and, of course an unprecedented, beneficial peacefulness. You can explore the Espuna with the help of the maps provided by the hotel, or relax by the private pool and sunbathing area.
Welcoming you to the Mariposa are Mark and Sam, along with their two children, Tom and Cady.
Situated around a central courtyard, all the rooms are en-suite and have central heating, rooms are cleaned daily or at our guests request.
The courtyard is the ideal place to enjoy that cool drink, or a delicious meal prepared by Sam in the fully equipped kitchens.
The restaurant is open from 6am for breakfast to residents, and an extensive lunchtime snack and TAPAS menu is now available.
A fully stocked bar nestles in the corner of the dining room together with comfortable sofas and free WiFi. Also here is satellite t.v so you can catch up on the news, but really this is an area you will want to be out and exploring.
The adventurous among you can use the maps and explore the park on foot, mountain bike ( we have bikes for hire) or even by car, with many places to visit. See the "ice houses", "dinosaur footprint" and the now disused isolation hospital.
An experienced guide is available for your walking trips to quieter areas of the park.
The protected area of "Barranco de Gebas" is nearby, and is known as the "Badlands".
A warm welcome awaits everyone visiting the Mariposa, whether its popping in for a coffee, the delicious menu of the day, or an extended relaxing stay.
The hotel is situated in Gebas, on the C3315, which is the  Main Alhama de Murcia to Mula road.
